West Ham United were deserved winners against Burnley yesterday.

West Ham ace Felipe Anderson spoke to reporters in the aftermath of his side’s hard-fought 4-2 win over Burnley at the London Stadium yesterday, and admitted that he and his teammates could not quite believe it when Burnley levelled the match at 2-2, as quoted by the club’s official website.

The Hammers totally dominated the game against the Clarets, and in the end, the 4-2 scoreline ended up flattering the visitors, after the home side had 22 attempts at goal.

Yesterday’s win was a vitally important one for Manuel Pellegrini’s side, and they now sit in 13th spot in the Premier League table, a full six points clear of the relegation places.

Anderson spoke to reporters after his side’s 4-2 victory, and admitted that he and his teammates could not quite believe it when they were pegged back to 2-2 by Burnley yesterday, as quoted by the club’s official website:

“At 1-1 we believed we could win it, I scored and they equalised again and for some seconds we couldn’t believe it but we are a team that fights until the very end, that believe in themselves and that helped us stay in the game. It’s better to work with a win, we have serenity, confidence and we want to get more.”

West Ham face Huddersfield Town next, and it would take a brave man to be against a confident Hammers side making it two consecutive wins in the Premier League.
